You sure they didn't do that just to make it easier to take out?

Welp.

I think you can now rule out a cam phaser issue

I'm gonna say "tune"

Can't say that without seeing piston crowns and rod bearings.

When I spoke to Livernois and RMB they both said oh you made it to 178k? Like it was a shock on a tuned ecoboost. LOL. That is worrisome.

I guess you can say....

I was "cranky". LOL.

 

[dsiggi]

See didnt need to see anything, i've never seen a crank do that on a non tuned ecoboost

 

[Donovan]

I am tuned though.

The way you phrased makes it sound like you thought a "bad" tune blew it up.

As opposed to it was making more power than stock due to being tune, so it simply didn't last as long as it would have if it was stock.

Build is DONE! Prepared to go in, ordering turbos today.

Question -

I have a 2017, but what would happened if I ordered the 2018-2020 turbos? If its fine, what is the part number? Who has the cheaper?

I thought we had a previous respondent that indicated the ‘18+ turbo was a direct bolt on. Am I misremembering?
